Michael

Look in the mirror, see the lines on my face

Every single one tells a story of grace

Used to be lost in the shadows and smoke

Carrying chains till the day that they broke

I'm a survivor, walking out of the night

Trading the heavy for a burden that's light

Passionate heart, yeah, I'm staying the course

Found my direction, returning to source

Fifteen years clean, yeah, the vision is free

No more relying on the poison in me

Dedicated steps on the road that I see

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

Yeah, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

Michael, you made it, but it wasn't alone

Rebuilt the temple right here on the stone

Days when the whispers would echo and call

Leaned on the Word and I stood through it all

Passion inside of me, burning so bright

Keeping the focus and fighting the fight

One day at a time, that's the only way how

Look at the peace that is living here now

Fifteen years clean, yeah, the vision is free

No more relying on the poison in me

Dedicated steps on the road that I see

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

Yeah, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

The bottles are empty, the spirit is full

Escaped from the gravity, broke from the pull

A decade and half since I walked through that door

I don't look back at the dark anymore

I just look up, yeah, I just look up

Fifteen years clean, yeah, the vision is free

No more relying on the poison in me

Dedicated steps on the road that I see

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

Yeah, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

Fifteen years down, and a lifetime to be
